Description
Lochgair Church is a mid-19th century building designed in a plain Gothic Revival style. It has an oblong shape and is harled with gabled slate roofs. A belfry is located at the south end of the church, which features moulded skew-putts and pointed windows, although the ends of the building are blank. There is a gabled addition at the north end. The interior is simple yet pleasing, and the church underwent extensive renovations in 1964, during which the interior was redecorated.
